RE: [Jython-users] stupid newbie question

[Steve C. <St...@ig...>]

There is some meat on this stupid newbie question, isn't there? 8-)

I just typed return.

This was on a RedHat linux installation with the revisions to
ReadlineConsole.java that I submitted last week and the installation was
set to use org.gnu.Readline

stupid newbie questionPuzzled me.

If it says it's a syntax error it is one (with very high probability).
What do you typed on the second "..." line, I really mean what keyboard
char?
I'm unable to find a key combination that produces the
signaled empty (null) line.

Thanks, Samuele Pedroni.
